Taking a Closer Look

by Joe Dunbar of the Haunted Yarn Shop
Mysteries

I’ve never met a creek in Eastern Tennessee
that I didn’t want to fish and I’ve never spent time in the woods that I
regretted. I guess I’m expected to go on a bit, here. Tell you more about it.
Describe a day in the creek. Imitate a bird or something. I’d rather show you. I
use my camera as often as my rod. I took these pictures last week up along Granny Lewis Creek.

There now. How do you like the mushrooms? Once
you start looking, those little tiny ones are everywhere. My next stop is the
library to see if there’s a guide so I can put names to them.

Some folks in Blue Plum might expect me to compare
the hubbub of town unfavorably to what I find out in the mountains. I’m not really
interested in doing that. You look closely in the forest and you find those
little gems of fungi and they’re beautiful. It’s not so different if you take a
good close look at people. And I guess that’s about all I have to say on the
subject. If you want to see more of my pictures, you’ll find them here.
